Recruiting PHASE2 Glioblastoma, IDH-Wildtype

New treatment option for Glioblastoma, IDH-Wildtype

Official title WP1066 and Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Glioblastoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05879250

What this study is testing

What is STAT3 Inhibitor WP1066?

STAT3 Inhibitor WP1066 is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for glioblastoma, idh-wildtype.

Also referred to as WP 1066, WP-1066.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This phase II trial tests how well the combination of WP1066 and radiation therapy works in treating newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Glioblastoma is difficult to treat effectively because the cells within the tumor vary widely and are controlled by factors within and around the tumor, requiring multiple approaches to treat the tumor.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works

A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
